Clemson and USC coaches will be waiting on decisions from two prospects each Wednesday morning. Everything else on their respective boards is complete.

The Tigers are expecting to land DB Adrian Baker over Oklahoma. They are hopeful of picking up DB Mackensie Alexander over Auburn, Mississippi State and others. The only other uncommitted prospect on Clemson’s board is OL Tyrone Crowder but he’s been locked in with Clemson for weeks.

Should Clemson fail with Baker and/or Alexander, the Tigers could offer DB Ryan Carter who made a recent official visit but was not offered.

USC is now a strong favorite to land LB Skai Moore of Fort Lauderdale over Vanderbilt and Rutgers. The Gamecocks and Florida State appear 50-50 for DL Keith Bryant as of Tuesday night.

The Gamecocks did not sent a letter of intent to LB Tyrell Lyons who will stand with his commitment to Florida State.
